So you're telling me Section 31 didn't scrub that ship clean before sending it off to be adapted into a museum exhibit? Let alone any other science team?

My suspension of disbelief is stretched rather thinly with respect to the Tuvix flower being handed over to some lower deckers to be cargo on a California class before being put on rotating display to the public. It just seems way too dangerous to not end up going straight to either Daystrom.

Still loved it though.
